A Washington dispatch gives the fol

"Commissioner Black, of the Pension
Office, is preparing land will have ready
blank forms for the uses OF Mexican
war survivors and widows making appli-
cation for pensionsiunder the recent act of
Congress. The commissioner is specially
desirous that applicants and others defer
correspondence on the subject, as it is
expected that the forms in preparation
and the accompanying Instructions will
be so full and complete as to render cor
respondence unnecessary. All forms
furnished by pension claim agents will
be considered informal unless approved
by the Co mmissioner of Pensions"

srOkIEs OF A VIRGINIA HonH.

The Clay Hill portrait Of Mr.. John
Randolph, said to be the finest like
ness Of him, is now In the Corcoran
gallery at Washington.
Long after Mrs. Tabb's death Mr..
Randolph still came to Clay Hill. He
was there one day at a dinner party
given to young army officer. At
table the military guest was giving q
glo wing account of the Mexican
churches, some of the finest OF which,
he said, had been turned into barracks
by the United States troops.
"Why. captain, were you not afraid
to do it?" asked one of the ladies.
20. no; for my part" the captain
replied, II have become 30 used to
such things that I could take my din
ner on an altar as comfortable as else
where"
'And so would hog, SIR" said Mr..
Randolph.
In the silence that followed this ter
rible thrust, they say the very air of
the room seemed to tingle as the nerves
of the guest did.
At that time, and even a much later
day, there was in the neighborhood no
regular clergyman of the Episcopal
church. Sometimes only once in three
or four years would a person appear,
and then it was that the wedding took
place and that all the children born in
the interval were brought to be Dap
tized. This last, as matter of cour-
tesy to the pastor, was Of strict obliga-
tion. DR.. Archer's youngest son was
iquite old enough 70 have some notion
of the import OF the rite when his turn
for it came, and objected to the ordi-
nance. He tried to run away. When
his father caught him the little fellow
lyelled:
II 'dwant to be baptizedn'
why not, my son?" inquired the
old doctor.
cause l can't cuss no MORE" sob
bed the little boy, plteously.
''You shall curse just as much as
you please, my son." said the old man,
tenderly. "Come along, let 'em bsp-
tie you, my child"
"The privilege Of ''cussing' secured
to him by this strange dispenssSlon,
the little fellow made no further resist
ance, but submitted tn the rite.
DIR Archer was q lifelong partisan
OF his illustrious brother in law, Gov.
Giles, one of the ablest politicians of
the day. Some time after the Cover =
nor's death the doctor, in heat OF a
political discussion, said to his oppo
nent:
"Go and ask Giles. If you doub,
what say, sir, go and ask Giles"
"Brt can't" remarked the other.
"Giles, sir, ,is dead-dead and in hell"
~ don't care snap If he isl
1cried the doctor. go there AMI ask

serves held over from last years crop

As the German empirs ia putting dis

THE KINGS DAUGHTERS,
A woman's Organization for Charitable
and Philanthropicai Purposes

and Philanthropcai Purposes
A little more than year ago, half
dozen women in New York formed
themselves into sort of ''lend-a-hand"
society, and called themselves THE
Kings Daughters, from those daugh.
ters mentioned in the Psalms who
were "all-glorious Within Edward
Everett Hale's plan of working by tens
was adopted. That is, each member
gathers to herself nine others, who
each again form band Of ten, and SC
on. for special work.
From this small beginning, a little
more than year ago, there are to-day
thousands of members, and the society
has representatives in thirty-three
States. Canada, England, South Amer
ica and New Zealand. The main object
of the Daughters is to do any thing,
however humble, that will make any
fellow-mortal better or happier. Some
of the Tens" visit the sick in hosp-
tails; other items" visit the sick and
needy in tenement-houses; Others visit
invalids. These are known as the
Comforting Tens" Certain Tens"
have agreed not to gossip of other
women, nor TO shrug their shoulders
when the names Of other women are
mentioned. These are the Hold-the-
Tongue Tens and so on.
The first annual meeting of the new
organization was recently held in the
Young Women's Christian Association
Hall, in East Fifteenth street, and the
beautiful auditorium room was crowded
by an assembly Of the Daughters "
from many directions and different
States. ITEMS" of boys, to be called
"Armor-B Bearers" and men, to be
known as "The Kings Guard" will
assist the Daughters" m good work
next autumn.
The organization Of the Kings
Daughters is for religious and benev'
olent work. But why should not the
Kings Daughters come and help the
woman suffragists9 The work OF SUI
fragists is to secure the application oi
the Golden Rule in politics. What
work is more truly religiousp Greh
moral questions fail to be carried Tor
lack Of the help women could give u
they had votes. Dens of vice game
ling-houses and liquor-saloons breed
crimes which result in torture 10 wom'
en- and little children. and include Other
evils. These dens flourish, and VIII
continue TO do so till the votes OF WON
en- are added to the votes Of men who
wish to destroy these evila What can
be more benevolent than securing the
ballot to women? Let the Kings
Daughters join the woman sufiraglstS
and let suffragists unite in tens after
their manner, and SO multiply ow
helpers and our work. Womd" Jour
